Ifijor Bif m OoLtrfcct for 61 of the 5ew
City Hall Band.
MONEY TO EE PAID WITHIN TWENTY DAYS
Move to Be Made Toward rare Ha ae
of lle- or eerl Plaaia latll
Cash la la the Treasury to
Meet Expense.
At noon Tuesday Mayor Koutsky at
tached his signature to the contract fir
the ty.'f city hall bmds sold to Hayes
& Sons by the council Monday nlit.
This contract, along with histories of 4he
bonds, were d'-livered to agnts for the
Cleveland bankers during the afternoon.
The city stipulates that the- borvcls must
be paid for within twnty days. In adii
tlon to a premium of IsV. these bankers
will pay to the city the accumulated In
terest. The city hall bonds will, under
the present arrangement, draw Interest
at the rate of 41 per "'nt and run
for twnty years, with the usual flve-yenr
option. This Issue is to be dated May
1. l&iii. and fgurlng forty days accumulated
Interest the city will te r' -'an Interest In
addition to the premium and will only be
called upon to pay 1:73 for the blank bonds.
It was at first proposed to sell these
bonds at not more than 6 per cent, but It
was found that Hayes A; Sons would take
the bonds for 44 per c-nt and pay the
premium mentioned In addition to the ac
crued interest.
The understanding f erns to be that no
advertisement for plans or contracta will
be made until the money for the sale ff
the bonds Is on hand Just as soon as the
purchasers deposit the purchase price the
deal for the site at Twenty-fourth and O
streets will he closed and then will come
the plans and the letting of contracts.
With the building of a ctty hall and Jail
will come additional expense for furnish
ing, lights and Janitor service, to say
nothing of heating. At the present time
and for over five years the city has paid
T.45 a month for city offices, including
heat. No estimate has been made of the
co-t of furnishings or maintenance, but
an additional levy will surely have to be
made to meet this additional expense.
ew Order for Appraisers.
There will t some delay in the letting
of a contract for the grading of Sixtenth
street from a point feet north of Mis
souri avenue to I street on accouiit of a
change In the city charter. Formerlv v hen
an improvement petition was p-fnted
to the council the mayor named the ap
praisers to go over the ground and esti
mate the damage. If any. This was done
In the Sixteenth street case, but the report
handed to the council Monday night waa
returned to the appraisers. E. R. Leigh,
B. E. Wilcox and Jospeh Murphy, for cor
rection City Attorney Lemhert hold! that
under the present charter the appraisers
must first meet and set a date for making
the appraisement. This date must be ten
days after the first meeting of the ap
praisers. All property owners Interested
must be notified by the city clerk of the
date when the appraisers will meet to go
over the ground. In this case the apprais
ers mentioned will set a date for meeting
the property owners and then, according
to Mr. Lambert, the records will be clear
and In conformance with the new charter.
Fred In a; City Prlsonera.
A new feature "has been added to the
feeding of city prisoners. When the con
tract was awarded Monday night to Julius
Rothholi the stipulation was inserted that
dinner was to be served at the same price
as breakfast and supper. Heretofore the

Pavlnar Matter Delayed.
A week will most likely elapse before
the city council will take any action on
the matter of the Twenty-fourth street
paving. For the sake of having a good,
substantial pavement the mayor and coun
cil Incline tonards vitrified brick, as the
asphalt pavement has never been satisfac
tory from the date it was laid. F. J
Iewla, a property owner here, has made
the s'aten.ent that he is willing to put
down an asphalt pavement and give a
ten-year guarantee This matter was
looked up yesterday ard all of the asphalt
company managers visited by City En

antee was all that they could afford to
give on asphalt.
Drawing Exhibit.
An exhibition of drawings, the work of
the pupils of the drawing department of
the public schools, will be held at the
High school building today and Thursday
and Friday. This exhibition is the rep
resentative work of the pupils In free
hand drawing and designing. Patrons of
the schools and others Interested are In
vited to visit the exhibit.
ome Teacher Flensed.
The public school teachers who were
elected at the special meeting of the
Board of Education Monday night are
more than pleased. It appears to be the
understanding that no more teachers will
be elected until the regular meeting of
the btiard on June 5. Schools close for the
term on Jane 2 and the teachers whose
names were not on the list published
Tuesday will not know whether they will
be re-err.pioyed or not until after the June
meeting Some of the teachers now em
ployed propose going elsewhere and a few
have announced that they will be married I
before the opening of the schools in the
fall. With 114 teacher now elected the
big majority has been provided for, and
the balance will be looked after later. No
assignment of teachers to buildings will
be made until later.

surance have been received from South
Omaha people that the busineas and pro

TAXES FOR CITY EDUCATION
Method of Ralslaar Revenne Proving;
to Be a Problem tor the
Board.
The attitude of the board of Education
regarding the manner of raising taxes for
the school fiscal year of li;-07 has not
been defined and the attorney for the
board. C. E. Herring, is working on the
matter.
The school district laws direct that the
board shall certify to the mayor and city
council In January of each year the amount
of funds needed to be raised by taxation
for the following fiscal year. This provi
sion is not amnded or changed, but the
charter, as part of the merger scheme,
directs the council to certify the funds
needed by the city for the following calen
dar year, to the county clerk In June, in
order that a levy may be made by the
county commissioners. The taxes produced
do not become payable until J".e following
May and delinquent July 1 Should the
Board of Education wait until next Jan
uary before certifying the amount needed
for the fiscal year lf-7. the taxes desired
would not be delinquent until the year was
ended and due only two months before this.
As a result, school board officers figure it
out that the district will fail Just one year
behind to the amount cf about w...
meaning heavy interest charges on war
rants and an enforced continuance of this
policy thereafter.

of the case In question. Its sentiments
i should be heeded bv everybody In and out
of Omaha. There is no valid rensn why
City should not have 2viv. jn
lPli. This city, which is to celebrate Its
semi-centennial son.e time r.ext month, has
j a population of nearly 2."o.''"1" and will
I strive for '.' by 1P10. and whilst nature
I lavishly bestowed jp.in its borders its
lakes and dells, yet much of this lc-i-i
tiful city and surroundings was wrought
1 from a wooded section by the skillful
artisan r.d enterprise of Its public men.
Go where you will you never will find a
knocker of Minneapolis. We don't have
reform clubs that do not reform and other
ridiculous matters Ever body b of ts
Minneapolis Its city officials are sus
tained and rigidly obeyed Omaha s city
officials compare well with officials any
where for honesty, etc. The council from
Its president down is a painstaking and
hard-working body. The clerk, treasurer,
comptroller, city engineer, legal depart
ment, etc., are gentlemen of ability and
certainly capable officials In their re
spective positions. The amount of money
the eeavet.ger law brought Into the c;ty

alleged carelessness of a dnver for the
latter firm. Wir.eberg was crossing Nine

by the wheel, knocked down, run over and
waa actually killed by the vehicle. At
least, that is what he testified to in court.

Former Township Clerk at O'Neill
Said to Have Raised Warrants.
ONEIlL. Neb., May 23 (Special. )
Qtiite a sensation was created here when
Expert Bookkeeper T. C. Cannon of Sioux
City. Ia.. reported a shortage of about
in'i in the office of Former Township
Treasurer P. J. Handley, who is now a
resident of Boyd county, this state. Mr.
Cannot was employed as a result of a
special meeting of the taxpayers of Gratton
township with the above result. Bonds
men of Handley are now actively taking
steps 10 have the former treasurer pay the
reported shortage. It is claimed the former
treasurer raised warrants and scratched out
the cancelling stamp in other cases, using
the same warrants twice In making set
tlements with the township board. In one
case the expert reports a l& warrant raised
to tiy, he having traced it from the time
it was Issued to the date the cancelling
sta.np was placed thereon. This warrant
had been paid to O. O. Snyder & Co. for
material furrished. and while the warrant
Itself showed plainly it had been raised,
the fact that the amount appeared on the
bookt of O. O. Snyder & Co. as $30, is
taken as conclusive and additional evidence
that the amount of the warrant had been
raised Another warrant is reported to
have been raised from t'. to $11)0.
The report has not yet been made pub
lic, but the result is known by at least
half of the people of O'Neill, and is creat
ing quite a sensation. Some of Handley s
friends Insist It is a put up Job. they hav
ing such faith in his honesty, but the ex
pert appears to be able to substantiate
what he rejiorts.

Plan Now for Colorado
When nature got through with her upheaval in
Colorado, she left a conglomerate mass of mountains con
taining fiome of the rarest sjsots in the world Pike's Peak,
Garden of the Gods, Koval Gorge, the Black Canon, Mar
shall Pass. Estes Park, etc.
Colorado is a mile higher than tide water. Every
cubic foot of her atmosphere is charged with vitalizing
ozone. A complete change of atmosphere and living are
the first necessities of a vacation. Colorado's crisp moun
tain air. cool nights, vivifying waters and outdoor life
thoroughly restore a depleted system.
Colorado's mountain chains, with 130 snow capped
peaks each over 14.000 feet high, form a panorama of
nature's scenic masterpieces. Her canons and gorges re
veal abysmal depths. While the mountain climber risks
his life on the Alps for a view of sunrise, thousands of
tourists mav easilv reach the summits of Pike's Peak or
a a
Marshall Pass and from them look out over regions of
indescribable wildness for a radius of a hundred miles,
while watching the eastern sun paint the wierd topog
raphy in countless hues.
Remarkably low and favorable vacation rates to Colorado
